Quaint, rustic place, clean, well landscaped, friendly staff, very close to some very good restaurants, close to playa ventanas, it is wooden structure so quite rustic but goes well w the jungle vibes.
Tangara Azul is a little gem, lovely accommodation with lots of living space and a kitchen, nice pool and grounds, easy 15 min drive to Uvita, much better value than staying there. Also has the citrus restaurant and a deli on site.
Posh! Well designed and decorated cabin with natural landscaped views but close to everything (beaches, attractions, amenities). Wonderful food at the on-site restaurant. We had a nice rear porch with a Jacuzzi. It's a shame there's a pickleball court next door; otherwise you'd believe you're in the middle of the jungle.
The cabiña we stayed in was really cute, but I didn’t feel it was super functional and definitely not accessible for all. The stairs to the bedroom were quite steep, and the dining table and build-in bench were in the open air (fine for most, but I’m a mosquito magnet!) so there was nowhere to really hang out except for in bed. It was nice to have a kitchen, and we had a great meal at Citrus. No one was working the desk when we tried to check out in the morning.

I liked the premises but the cabins were a little disjointed. The upper bedroom was only accessable via a steep set of stairs and as an older person this was challenging. The lower portion was open-air and not air conditioned. Nice and clean and great location
The night of our stayed suffer from a long power outage, that is beyond the hotel's control but seems typical of the area. Also there was a bridge in bad conditions that as hard to see and could potentially prompt an accident.
We stumbled upon this place when our VRBO host cancelled on our reservation merely a day before our check in. But boy are we glad.
The place is tucked away about 10-15min from Uvita, so it's quieter. The location is not far from the main road, but once you're in the complex it feels like you're in a secluded place. They did well with the place. Each cabin is surrounded by greeneries so you don't see your "neighbors". The cabin itself is very nice and comfortable. I was actually down with stomach bug while we were there and it was a nice place to be sick in. The pool is very nice, and although we didn't try the restaurant, I enjoy having the small plaza in the complex (they have pharmacy, restaurant, small convenient store..). They also provide laundry service. Service is top notch.
Highly recommend.
The staff are friendly at the hotel and the adjoining restaurant. I recommend when staying in Ojochal.

I’ve stayed a Tangara Azul earlier this year, that’s why I chose to stay there again. The staff and location are great. I actually will be staying there again before I leave Costa Rica. I highly recommend it!

Toll angelegt in einen tropischen Garten. Sauberer erfrischender Pool. Das Haus ist mit allem ausgestattet, was man braucht. Die Einrichtung ist modern. Ein ältere Bewertung, dass die Häuser ‚in die Jahre gekommen‘ sind können wir nicht teilen.
Das schwache Internet war nicht so erfreulich, da wir eigentlich noch die nächste Unterkunft der Reise buchen mussten.
Sehr schöne Bungalow. Gut ausgestattet, das einzige was negativ war, das das wlan ständig ausgefallen ist.

Booked the bungalow for a night while driving through and wished we had more time to stay another night. The property is beautiful, bungalow was half open air where we could relax and listen to the birds and rain, and there is a great restaurant and beer bar on site. Great location within Ojochal for walking to beach or to a restaurant.
The bungalows are beautiful, with friendly staff, and on a good location (car is required in costa rica).
The lady at the reception was very helpful with some bookings for tours, but we found the same tours cheaper at other places.
The employees could be a bit more proactive and open the windows of our bungalow for fresh air, as it was a bit smelly when we checked in, probably due to it being not rented for a while as we visited on the off season.The toilet is downstairs and the bedroom is upstairs, a bit impractical. Includes cooking facilities and refrigerator.
Cool little town, easy to miss off the freeway, and if you find it, easy to miss the hotel. But once you do it's all bliss. Not walking distance to a beach, my only sadness. Beautiful single dwellings, open living and kitchen areas. Bathroom shower water temp made no sense, could be hot or cold at any time. Early morning rush hour very loud freeway noise heard from my porch/living room; didn't like that. Otherwise nice and quiet. I recommend.
